Hi and

Congrats on your new chicks.
If it's warm you can move them outside to the coop when they're about 4-5 weeks old. Take them outside before that, but keep an eye on them because you don't want them running away!

You can feed treats to chicks, but if you do so they need grit.

I hope you find all the info you need here, and enjoy the site.
